The beauty of a white dress is it's pure versatility. When worn with a tan it's a phenomenal look, and in between seasons, wear under a tough-looking leather jacket and black ankle boots and you're every bit as chic, if not a tad warmer. Yes, the white dress is a real hero.

But what shoes to wear? It's the sartorial challenge we're faced with on a regular basis. The safest bet is to keep things neutral. A tan or a nude will always work well and let's the dress do all the talking. But for those who fancy a change? Embrace a little colour and transform your LWD .

Metallics

Silver and gold have dominated our accessory collections for years, and there's no better pairing than a crisp white dress with a high-shine heel. Choose simple strappy styles for evening, and for day, go for a statement gold ankle boot.

The classic tan suede combo

There's no doubt about it, nothing says summer like a tan suede sandal and a white dress. During those balmy months go for a mule-style sandal and pair with a red pedicure, and between seasons, try a pair of suede over-the-knee boots.
